Ready to go to the shops, but will not be meeting DD2, she emailed last night, she has pulled her back again, cannot walk.......the pain killers are not touching it.
Bad night DB had palpitations again, he seems to be getting them every fortnight. He is learning not to bother about them so much, the info is sent via his pacemaker to the pacemaker clinic. He is going with me this morning, will sit and read in the car whilst I go into the shop.
I have started the piano border for niblets quilt, looking at it on the floor yesterday I have decided how to quilt it, very simply in the ditch. I measured the backing fabric and its going to be fine. I need to do the label for it. I sew it into the left hand corner of the quilt, so it is anchored on the sides by the quilting and binding.
I am doing frittata tonight, bacon and mushroom, using up DB's mushroom, there are no sign of any more coming through, he keeps watering it. no idea for a dessert.
Update.
Shopping was a mistake spent £48.00, but there is stuff for the freezer. DB asked for pork steaks on Sunday, I got a small pork loin roast which has cut into 8 steaks, not bad 50p each,
Since coming home I have sewn the border for one of the long sides of the quilt and pinned it on 36,4 1/2 x 2 .1/2 strips, so have cut the strips for the other side. I am going to use corner stones one of each fabric, then I have to sort out the backing, layer it up and quilt it. I was looking at a blown up photograph when it was on the floor, have decided how to quilt it, I will use the walking foot that came with the machine and stitch either 1/4" in or in the ditch. with a fair wind I might just get it done.
Our new bed is coming on Saturday, so we will have to get up early so we can dismantle the old bed and get the base over to the chapel. I am going to photograph the old headboard and put it on Gum tree, might get £30 - £40 for it,
